The Secret of Salvation

In the name of Jesus Christ these pages were penned and are sent forth with a prayer that the same may be a blessing to every reader, and more clearly point out the way of salvation to those who are seeking after God, and become words of comfort and counsel to such as are longing for a closer walk with Him.

It is not so much the aim of the author to set forth in this work the deep things of God, and explain the mysteries of His Word, as to place the key to the same in the hands of the reader and reveal the secret, enabling the earnest inquirer after truth and power with God to be able to unlock the great storehouse, and have access to the hidden treasures to which every child of God is entitled.

The first part of the book aims to point out the way of Salvation and how to get it. The second part shows how to keep it, and enjoy its blessings, while the latter part is given especially for the benefit of those who have bodily afflictions and are suffering the pains of sickness and disease, or are oppressed of the Devil.

Do not throw the book aside until it has been thoroughly read and compared with the Word of God; and when all prejudice is cast aside, and the book is read with a prayer for divine help, it is hoped that the soul will be enriched and wonderfully advanced in the divine life.

May the rich blessings of God be abundantly bestowed upon each reader of this book, and upon the children of God everywhere; and in the words of the apostle (3 John 2), “I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.”

Yours in Him,

E. E. Byrum
